Thanks Cam, very timely. I've been thinking about my (shitty) form most rides recently, and thought about this article on last night's ride.
More upright, head higher etc felt like it gave me more room to pump, and changed my cornering focus from thinking about the arc my bike/feet are making, to thinking about my head making the arc, and everything below following through loosely.
I did ruin the clarity of the experiment by changing an extra variable though, swapped out the 480lb spring for a 500lb, no doubt this helped the mid stroke for pumping.
